Was bored after i did the RoboCop2 model so i started this Motorbike...
I would call it the Limousine under the Motorbikes ;]
It's in an early state... Going to make the engine & Co. and at last the hull...

Like it a lot.
The wheels look almost exactly like the ones in an exhibition piece from a back issue of 3D World more on that later.
So far it is looking good. I like the details. You might want to make the back tire larger than the front tire. Also, the two rods sticking off the front look flimsy. Other than that it looks great...

@Vertigoblack
Be aware... You might get addicted to it! ;}
@Futura
Maybe i'll make the back tire a bit larger... At this moment i'm not 100% sure how the whole bike is going to look like when it's finished...
@Zak
Boxmodeling only :] ( with a LOT of extruding, splitting up, welding together etc... )
@Phb
Heres a site i put up with some pictures of Robocop2. |

I like it. Very cool.
Do you find polygon modeling for vehicles to be easier than nurbs? |

@buyuu
What do define as a snazzy paint? For me as a minimalist ( ) i'm happy with just a fucking number on the sideparts and "Michelin" on the wheels... ( Uhum... very minimalistic... )
@Zak
How long i've been modelling on this model or my overall experience in modeling?
If it's for THIS model i've started this Wednesday...
If for the overall since February...
Did the holes in the exhaust with a boolean in the heatshield of it. |

A very sweet looking model. I really love how the finger-tip controls work with the 'handles'. Great thought out future design.
My only gripe is how is the person going to ride this bike??? The design really doesn't allow for a persons legs. Also the handles placements are far to narrow. |

I like minimalist stuff too, I am swedish after all . It is kind of hard to explain, but I was thinking something like along the lines of a metallic gradient you find on some fishing lures..um..ya know what I mean? Vibrant colors don't have to be tacky, methinks...Don't know if my explanations make any sense at all, but it was the first thing that came to my mind when saw the bike. Mmmm.. Snazzy..  |

@chrono1
You're right... The handlebars could be a little bit more away from the driver but as you can see on the 2 pics it works quite good... ( hmm... Manta Manta )
@buyuu
Hard to understand what you're talking about but i'll see what i can do |

The sole of her feets just hit the inner cover of the bike...
( And just to mention... That's an Anime figure with long legs!  ) |
